45. (And remembers) when the angels said: O
Mary! Lo! Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him, whose name is
the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, illustrious in the world and the Hereafter,
and one of those brought near (unto Allah)-

46. He will speak unto mankind in his cradle
and in his manhood, and he is of the righteous.

Kalimatin – (a Word), according to Holy Qur’an and Sayings of the Last
Messenger, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be
upon him) Jesus Christ (peace be upon him) has been named as KalimatUllah. As the title of Angel
Gabriel (peace be upon him) is Ruuhul
Qudus, just like this KalimatUllah
is the title of Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him). Even in this manner, the
Words of Allah Almighty are uncountable, but Jesus (peace be upon him) is
specifically called KalimatUllah for
the reason that his birth was without father, only by the order of Allah
Almighty, contrary to the custom. The affair, which will be contrary to reason,
custom and rules that will be attributed directly to Allah Almighty.

‘al-Masiihu – (the Messiah), this Hebrew word is a form of
the word ‘Maasheikh or ‘Mashiihaa, which means, “auspicious,
sacred, blessed, happy and august” etc. Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him) is
usually remembered with this name.

‘Iisabnu-Maryama – (it is the second name of Messiah), ‘Iisaa has come out from the Hebrew word ‘Iishuu’, which means Saiyid
(A lord, prince, chief, a descendant). Here this matter is meditation-able that
Holy Qur’an has kept particularly the word “’ibni-Maryam”as a part of the name of ‘Iisaa (Jesus) (peace be upon him). Therefore, his
(peace be upon him) pedigree will remain always towards his mother, Mary (peace
be upon her). Likewise, to disclose the greatness of Mary (peace be upon her)
her name has been made part of the name of Jesus (peace be upon him) for ever.

When glad
tidings of Jesus (peace be upon him) was given to Mary (peace be upon her),
then it was possible that she would have confused that, “How the people will
accept him (Jesus) without father? In addition, they will calumniate of various
sorts. How might I be able to announce for my chastity? Allah Almighty
explained, “O Mary! Be satisfied, I shall bestow him great honor not only in
the Hereafter but also in this world and prove their entire charges as false.
Your son will be most polite and righteous of higher degree. He will be still an
infant that talk to the people (in the cradle). You will have nothing to speak about
your chastity and acquittal; you would have to say only, “I have fasted today,
can not speak, the child will speak himself unto you, the mankind in his cradle
and in his manhood”.
